Chapter 19.
Launching J2EE Client Applications
This chapter is for the Client Component provider; that is, the person in charge of developing the
client components on the client side.
19.1. Launching Clients
The J2EE client application can be:
•
A standalone client in a
.jar
file
•
A class name, which must be found in the CLASSPATH
•
A client bundle in an
.ear
file. An
.ear
file can contain many Java clients.
All the files required to launch the client container are in the
JONAS_ROOT/lib/client.jar
file.
This
jar
includes a manifest file with the name of the class to launch. To launch the client container,
simply type:
java -jar $JONAS_ROOT/lib/client.jar -?
This launches the client container and display usage information about this client container.
To launch the client container on a remote computer, copy the
client.jar
and invoke the client
container by typing:
java -jar
path_to_your
/client.jar
The client that must be launched by the client container is given as an argument of the client container.
For example:
java -jar client.jar myApplication.ear
or
java -jar client.jar myClient.jar
19.2. Configuring the Client Container
19.2.1. JNDI Access
Defining the JNDI access and the protocol to use is an important part of configuration. The JOnAS
server, as well as the ClientContainer, uses the values specified in the
carol.properties
file. This
file can be used at different levels. The
carol.properties
is searched with the following priority
(high to low):
•
The
carol.properties
specified by the
-carolFile
argument to the client container.
•
The
carol.properties
packaged into the client application (the JAR client).
•
If not located previously, it will use the
carol.properties
contained in the
JONAS_ROOT/lib/client.jar.
